  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Counter Sprocket! 16 Tooth on 310TE ?

Husky310te

Husqvarna
When I purchased my 310te it was set up with the stock 13 tooth counter sprocket and a 52 tooth rear sprocket. The previous owner only road on tight steep single track and the that sprocket set-up worked very well for that. The first thing I did when I bought the bike was changing out the front sprocket to a 15 tooth. This helped me out on my commute drastically but it still to high. Just wondering if a 16 tooth would even fit on a 310te. If not I need to start looking at changing the rear sprocket. The front sprocket is just an easy switch out. I don't want to mess the rear sprocket if I don't have to.
 
What year is it? I have a 2100 310 and run 14/50, this gives me 105 kmh flat out (63 mph) and really good spread of power / speed.
 
It is a 2009. I would like to cruise at 55 mph while keeping the revs below 5500 revs per minute. (Yes with the old set-up 13/52 I was was hitting the rev limiter at 81 mph.) The bike just revs way to high while on my commute. I do not have to go over have to go over 60 mph on my commute though. Would just like the bike to purr at 55 mph.
 
I know the TE510 is geared slightly different internally but I run a 15/47 most of the time and it works well for highway use. That is a 3.13 ratio.

A 16/52 as you are suggesting is a 3.25 ratio. I would just purchase a 47 rear sprocket and mount it up. It is relatively simple, but not as easy as the swapping the front counter.
 
Some of the newer bikes come with a 42rear for emissions....with a 52 in the kit that has a few other goodies.

Maybe find someone who would sell it cheap. Use it with the original 13......13/42....just the ratio you were looking for.

14/50 gearing and you only get 105 km/h ?! On my stock 2010 TE 310 (with 13/50) I can easily squeeze out 135 km/h. Hits the rev limiter just above that. Mostly though I have run 13/47 but am now changing to 14/50 to get some tension back on the chain. I would say with my "normal" 13/47 it could do 140 km/h.
Also the stock 13T has just about had it after 4000km.
 
Guys come on. I have a 2011 TE310 with a stock counter and a 45 rear. I feel like the bike is going to blow up at 45mph. How are you guys claiming to go faster with a 50 or 52 rear? How can anyone do 81mph on a TE 310 without the piston hitting you in the head? I have a 40, 45 and 50 rear. Seriously, I know you guys aren't lying so what is the deal? Am I on crack? Are you guys sure you don't have a Honda 750?

You bike has a different engine and transmission, net even close to the same.
 
Stock configuration for emissions purposes for a 2012 is 13/40. Like I said, if you want a 40 or 45 rear you might advertise and see if someone wants to sell you a take-off from a 2011 or 2012. I'll probably keep mine and it might be OK for desert and fire road stuff.

I fully expect the bike to do 80+ once it's powered up and properly geared. My 08 will do that. If your bike can't do 80 then it's got a problem or the throttle stop is still there.:)
 
I have everything off of my 2011 TE310. Throttle stop and all. I still don't believe the bike is capable of doing 80 with a 40 tooth rear. Oh sure it will do 80 but for how long before it blows? All good.
 
On my 09 310 I run 13/50T hits the limiter at 128kmh. not really happy to cruise at anything above 85 though.

I can confirm that on my 2010 310 a max speed of ~135/140km/h with 14/50 gearing, this is at the rev. limiter in 6th gear. Yes, to keep the mechanical side of it simple I imagine that it would blow up eventually if you did that too long or too often. But I also respectfully want to say that if that was my claim to fame I should go back, rethink and next time be a tad more extravagant! I am not making this up, surely another 310 rider can someone else confirm this? Or maybe the orig. 6th gear vs x-lite gearing is much shorter, but off memory I dont think so.
Note that I haven't made any power up mods whatsoever, and it is road registered. Before I purchased it new the dealer removed throttle stop, cat. converter, 02 sensor (lambada? probe on exhaust) and the air intake restrictor. The "baffle" is also still in the muffler/exhaust system and I run knobby tyres (DOT approved).
